Recipes For Pasta: Mac & Cheese Recipe That Is Sure To Please!

Looks like this is on the menu for Sunday dinner this week. We were looking for a good make ahead meal that we could just pop in the oven right before dinner time. This mac & cheese recipe is a must have. I did some research and tried a few and this recipe is my favorite to date.

I like to toss in some cubed ham before topping with toasted bread crumbs & baking.

This is my “go to” mac & cheese recipe! I may add roasted cauliflower this time.Ingredients:

1 pound of corkscrew pasta

4 cups good cheddar cheese

2 cups milk

2 cups cream

1 1/4 stick of butter

8 Tablespoons flour

2 cups bread crumbs

1 Package cubed cooked ham

Salt & pepper to taste

Get cooking:

Cook pasta to al dente according to instructions on the package.

Drain & set aside

Preheat oven to 400

Melt one stick of butter is a sauce pan. Whisk in the flour. Keep whisking over medium heat for a minute or so to cook out the flour flavor.

Slowly whisk in the milk & cream over medium high heat. Bring to a bubble (stirring constantly) until thickened.
